Narrated by: Scott Mandeville

In the midst of modern chaos, do you find yourself longing for simplicity and clarity? Picture a time when our ancestors flourished, deeply intertwined with the pulse of nature. Could the antidote to today's overwhelming surge in mental malaise be found not in our medicine cabinets, but in rekindling that ancestral bond with nature?

He paints a vivid picture of our ancestors, living in sync with the environment, and contrasts it with today's reality, where comfort often trumps connection.

It's a cry for a shift in perspective, for a return to our natural roots. Wells delves deep into the therapeutic power of nature, unearthing scientific and psychological evidence of its impact on human well-being.

Nature's Antidepressant isn't merely a critique of modern society but offers a profound, holistic remedy to its ailments. Imagine a world where the solution to many emotional and psychological struggles lies not in synthetic medications, but in embracing the raw, rejuvenating power of the world around us.

A Book That Makes You Want to Change Your Habits

This book has opened up a pathway for me to reconnect with myself through nature and being outside more often. Working from home, I often spend most of the day inside, but learning in this book how beneficial it is for your body and mind just to be outside while doing things like reading and working already has me working on my patio more often. I feel like I sleep better spending more time outside and am just excited reconnecting with the wonder of the universe by watching the stars. I didn't realize the health benefits of these things and the changes I've made already have me feeling more energized.

Words of Wisdom from Deep Within

This book is one that so many people need to hear. We have become a society that has a fancy new pill or medicine for everything in our lives. We rely on these chemically created substances for everything from our fitness to the natural processes of our bodies and even our mental and emotional well-being.
Drake Wells's sharing of insight opens our minds to another possibility. Instead of looking for the latest and greatest fix in a future bottle, maybe it's much simpler. Just maybe looking to the past is the better solution.
In our reconnection to earth we can find a better and more natural way. The earth and the outdoors provided what man needed long before medicine existed. In fact, many modern medicines were built upon what nature already provided. Wells does an amazing job of sharing with the reader a better way of finding health and happiness and I applaud him for this amazing book!

This book discusses how we can live a healthy life without the use of modern day medicine.

However, not only does he talk about what we're missing, he does a great job of explaining how to gain the wellness needed not only to survive, but how to thrive!
